(JUNCTION CITY, Kan., July 28, 2023) – Stormont Vail Health is accepting applications for a new Patient and Family Partnership Council for Quality and Safety at the Stormont Vail Flint Hills Campus. This is an opportunity for community members to provide feedback on programs and initiatives that improve patient safety, quality of care or patient service issues at the healthcare system and specifically at the Flint Hills campus in Junction City. The Flint Hills Campus PFAC will initially meet in-person on a quarterly basis.
A similar PFAC has been in place at Stormont Vail in Topeka since 2016 and provides important feedback to the Stormont Vail hospital and clinic team. The Flint Hills group will work under the same charter, which includes objectives to seek improvement in the quality, safety and efficiency of services offered to patients and families, and to strengthen communication and collaboration of all groups providing and receiving care in the healthcare setting. The council is advisory only.
Council members are volunteers and must be 18 years are old. Council terms are two years. To apply for the council, please fill out a volunteer application form online at
https://stormontvail.vsysweb.com/pages/tool/live.webapp:JKC7HWVWIJ02YJ8V and indicate in the “Volunteer Interest” section that you are interested in the Flint Hills Patient and Family
Partnership Council and provide a brief explanation about why the council is of interest to you. You will then receive follow-up from a Stormont Vail representative.
There are also a number of other volunteer opportunities at the Flint Hills Campus to help serve patients and the community in meaningful ways. As a part of the onboarding process, Stormont Vail volunteers participate in a free health assessment and orientation session.
